Bernard Wiseman: The Fine Print

Our survey of original cartoon art by Bernard Wiseman has arrived at a captionless cartoon, one of two we will see.

Nevertheless, for good measure the seller has included "The New Yorker" in the title of the eBay listing. The selling price of $21.02 suggests the effort was for naught.
